Characters - Hazel - Sylvia - Megan - Carolyn - Ellen - Brandon- Breona Wu - Matty Overview of the storyA girl named Hazel always dreamed of being in with the popular crowd. There was a group of girls named Sylvia, the group leader, Carolyn, Megan, and Ellen. They were called the PLD's Pretty Little Devils. They were the most popular girls in the school. Hazel would do anything to be in that group. One day at lunch Sylvia bumped into Hazel throwing diet Coke all over her. Sylvia felt so bad that she offered to pay the cost of the shirt but Hazel told her not worry about it. So Sylvia invited her to a party. Then, before Hazel's eyes she was at a party with the PLD's she couldn't believe it, and before she knew it she was siting at their table at lunch. The PLD's have a tradition, every time one of girls babysat they would pull a prank on them, and let me tell you the pranks were very scary. Every so often the girls would get these really creepy text messages talking about death and the person was threatening them. But then as the story went on, something terrible happened.........Why I rated the book  The reason why I rated this book with all five stars is because I thought that this book was so different and I never read anything like it before. This book kept me going every time I needed to stop I couldn't, all I wanted to do was read, read, read. When I look for a book I look for a little Mystery but not to much of it, and I also look for teen drama and this book is both and that's why I liked this book. Plot- the plot of the story was there was a killer among them and people were being betrayed
